Chapter 1: Death is not the end

Next Chapter

The wind is fluttering, the rain is dashing, and the lights are not sleeping.

The trees are shaking, the night is swaying, and the yard farmers are hard to say.

The keyboard makes a rhythmic "da-da, da-da, da-da" sound.

Gu Ming insisted painfully in front of the computer, and at the same time silently recited the name of "Li Mochou" countless times in his heart.

Of course, what makes Gu Ming unforgettable is not the unforgettable love, but the hatred that is not shared.

Originally, according to the company's regulations, work was generally not allowed to be carried out on a private computer at home, but Gu Ming had asked him to take leave to rest at home for several days due to a lung infection caused by a high fever, which caused the progress of the alchemy function module he was responsible for to seriously lag behind the entire project.

This morning, Li Mo (nicknamed "Li Mochou"), who is the main planner of the project, gave Gu Ming a death order: "Tomorrow morning, Party A will watch the beta version." You either rush or die. ”

Gu Ming had a headache, it was a real headache, and the cough from time to time was squeezing his lungs and seriously squeezing Gu Ming's physical strength.

From 9 o'clock in the morning to now, Gu Ming has relied on the little dignity that he has never delayed in handing over the code in his 10 years of practice, as well as the little comfort provided by cigarettes.

The clock on the wall had already moved towards a point step by step, and finally Gu Ming's work was nearing its end.

Run the DEBUG software, OK!

Run the virtual server, turn on the alchemy module, OK!

The Dan furnace module is called normally, the Danhuo module is called normally, the medicinal herb module is called normally, and the alchemy module is called normally, OK!

The alchemy result is normal, the data interaction is normal, OK!

Gu Ming let out a long sigh of relief, and just as he raised his somewhat stiff hands, softening his throbbing scalp for a while, the mobile phone in his hand rang inappropriately.

The call that can make Gu Ming use mourning music as a ringtone, you don't have to look at it to know who it is.

Gu Ming's frowning brows could trap a mosquito, but Gu Ming, who had already finished his work, calmly scratched the answer button.

Hehe, life once again proved Gu Ming's innocence.

"Is it already done?"

"Hmm!" Gu Ming's eyebrows were dead mosquitoes +1.

"Party A called to ask for additional functions, and the manager has agreed!"

"Huh?" disabled, the dead mosquito in Gu Ming's eyebrows +10.

"The other party asked to add the function of using Tianjing to increase the success rate in the alchemy process, and the specific plan is already on the OA, and you need to contact the artist yourself. ”

"Well??!!" crit, Gu Ming's dead mosquito in the center of his eyebrows +100.

"In addition, I have arranged for the test to be on standby at the company, so please be sure to complete the modifications and upload them to the company server within 2 hours. ”

β€œ...... Please pay the highest tribute to your mother on my behalf. "With a killer blow, the dead mosquito in Gu Ming's eyebrows is +1000, and the dead fly is +1.

"Gu Ming, you are looking for, toot, toot, toot......" Li Mochou just wanted to be mad, but Gu Ming had already hung up the phone.

Gu Ming slowly stood up from the computer, and a strong feeling of dizziness made him almost sit back in his chair.

The mood is heavy, and the steps are vain.

He paced to the balcony and lit a cigarette, taking a hard puff, his mood calmed down a little, but his body returned to Gu Ming with a more violent cough.

Looking at the raging storm outside the building, listening to the mournful ringtones played on his mobile phone over and over again, and looking at this familiar and unfamiliar city, Gu Ming felt tired.

Brother is not smoking, he is lonely!

A lonely life is not without love, but all life is filled with trivialities of life, and there is no love at all.

Gu Ming has been in the company for 10 years, and has witnessed the changes in the game development industry, since he entered the industry, he has not changed jobs, and now he is familiar with the programs of various games, in fact, the requirements of Party A conveyed by Li Mochou just now are very simple for him, but he has completely lost his initial passion for work, and forgot the excitement when the game idea was realized from his hands.

Today's game industry has become more and more fast-food, and when a company develops a popular game mode, everyone will follow the trend and copy it, and some even change the name and interface and launch it to the market.

The game doesn't need to be creative, it just needs to circle money.

Not only the torture of illness, but also the weakness of not eating well for a day, coupled with this hateful job, all made Gu Ming feel sick.

I only took a puff of the cigarette in my hand, and then let it drift slowly in the wind over time.

Gu Ming's mind had slowly calmed down, and the chaos caused by the galloping of 100,000 grass and mud horses had subsided, leaving an indelible loss in his heart.

"My life has been in vain."

Gu Ming was born in a poor mountainous area, formerly known as Gu Dawa, Gu Ming's scientific name was changed by himself after he was studying, in order to warn himself to have "self-knowledge", his parents are authentic farmers.

In a poor farming family, as the eldest son of the family, he began to help the family at a very young age, going up the mountain to chop firewood, planting seedlings in the field, and going home to take care of his two younger brothers.

For the sake of his family, Gu Ming went to primary school with his two younger brothers at the age of eight, but because his family had dropped out of school, if it weren't for the persistence and persuasion of the old principal of the village school, he would not have been able to return to school.

Gu Ming didn't express any opinion on all this at all, and after he returned to school, he repaid the old principal and his parents with ten times the effort.

On the day of the registration of the junior high school in the county, when his father handed him a handkerchief wrapped in a stack of crumpled banknotes, Gu Ming cried, this is not the first time Gu Ming has cried, but this time it is unforgettable.

He will never forget his father's innocent smile, his mother's rough and gentle hand holding his cheek, and his younger brothers' happy and disappointed blessings.

Leaving this home, for the first time, alone, fourteen years old.

Although Gu Ming looked thinner than most of his classmates in the fourth class of junior high school, he was actually older than everyone else.

Whether it was active or passive, he was isolated at the first time, couldn't communicate, was thin and talkative, dressed sloppily, didn't participate in group activities, and picked up garbage everywhere to feed himself Gu Ming was destined to be out of place with the class.

High school life is a complete replica of junior high school, the only difference is that he no longer picks up garbage and sells it for money.

Since the age of sixteen, through the care of the school, Gu Ming began to work and study, and reading and working have become all of his daily life.

From leaving home at the age of fourteen to graduating from high school.

In six years. He only went home once, and that was because his grandfather died, and he stayed at home for two days.

In six years. He mailed a total of 7,415 yuan to his home, which was more than his basic living expenses.

In six years. Classmate: Gu Ming, is there such a person in our class?

In six years. Teacher: Gu Ming, there is this person in our class。。。。。。 Forehead...... What does it look like?

In six years. Friends? non-existent.

In six years. Girlfriend? Isn't it uniformly distributed by the state when you reach the age of marriage?

At the age of 20, Gu Ming's life started a new journey.

Leaving the county seat and coming to the provincial capital, the endless flow of vehicles in the provincial capital, the bustling crowd, and the impact of the bright world gave him was a tremor from the heart.

The broadening of his horizons is comprehensive and touches the soul for his transformation. Four years of college career has transformed Gu Ming from an honest hillbilly to a qualified urban sullen man.

Now Gu Ming is almost thirty-five years old, and if you do the math, he hasn't gone back for almost 20 years, and he hasn't even gone back when his two younger brothers got married.

The daily life of the company, bus, and apartment has also been insisted on for 10 years.

More and more living expenses are sent home every month, and the life of the family is much better.

I heard that a new house was built, and the two younger brothers married a new daughter-in-law in the first two years, and the two younger brothers also had some capital and started a small business together in their hometown, and life was not bad anyway.

It's a pity that apart from money, these basically have nothing to do with him.

The two brothers-in-law have never sat at the same table to eat, and the appearance of the younger brothers and the faces of their parents are still in the photo.

Now that the communication industry is highly developed, and all kinds of electronic products are so abundant, QQ, WeChat and other software can fully meet the needs of instant messaging. But the family didn't have a video chat once under the pretext that their parents wouldn't use it.

It's okay like this, so as not to embarrass everyone, he smiled and enlightened himself like this.

Think about growing up in addition to studying, just to earn money.

In addition to tuition fees, the money earned is sent to the family for living expenses.

has no friends, zero emotional experience, but there are two girlfriends, one is called "Left Mushroom Liang" and the other is called "Right Mushroom Liang".

"My life has been in vain!" Gu Ming sighed again.

Retracting his thoughts, the cool breeze from the balcony made his head hurt even more.

Snuff out the cigarette in his hand, which had almost burned out, returned to the computer, picked up the mobile phone that was still wailing next to the keyboard, and sent a WeChat message to the number that showed 26 missed calls.

"30 minutes. ”

Gu Ming really didn't want to hear Li Mochou's voice, although it was undeniable that Li Mochou did have a bit of a look, especially when he laughed!

Uh, when was the last time she smiled at me?

Did she ever smile at me?

What does she look like???

Forget it, the headache, tears and runny nose made Gu Ming recognize reality again.

Open the software and start a new round of operations.

Copy the refined code of the equipment in a game developed before, add a variable and make minor repairs, call the artist to provide icons, modify the interface, embed the main program, OK, done!!

Run the DEBUG software, OK!

Run the virtual server, add 100 Tianjing to the test account, open the alchemy module, OK!

The Dan furnace module is called normally, the Danhuo module is called normally, the medicinal herb module is called normally, and the alchemy module is called normally, OK!

Test the success rate of Tianjing add-on!

MD, data overflow!!The new system has a conflict with alchemy!!

Modify it and try again!!OK

The alchemy result is normal, the data interaction is normal, OK!

He was in no mood to check it anymore, and now he felt a sense of powerlessness eroding his whole body, his vision began to blur, and he even felt that it was difficult to breathe!

What's wrong with me, Gu Ming asked himself!

At this moment, an incomparably majestic voice seemed to sound in his ears, "Gu Ming, your longevity in this life is over, reincarnate with peace of mind." ”

"Am I going to die?"

"Death or death, no one cares anyway. ”

"No, no, I can't die yet, the completed program hasn't been uploaded yet, and the only insistence in my life can't be buried like this!

With the incomparably firm determination of the program ape, Gu Ming opened his eyes that were about to close, and raised his trembling hands to operate on the computer.

Pack, package, connect to a remote server, upload!!

Looking at the uploaded progress bar, he was completely paralyzed, feeling the weakness of his body, and his consciousness was gradually blurred, but there was a relieved smile on his face, he had already accepted his fate, and it was better to die!

......

Suddenly, the green tendons on Gu Ming's head bulged.

"No, no, I can't die yet, the 1TB of study materials on my computer can't be seen, otherwise my reputation in this life will be ruined! Give me another minute, just one minute!"

With the incomparably strong perseverance of a single dog, he forcibly opened his eyes that were basically closed with a breath of pure yang qi, and raised his trembling hands to operate on the computer.

Show the hidden folder, enter the C drive system directory, enter the learning materials directory, circle the two folders of compulsory courses and elective courses, shift+delete!!

Looking at the two progress bars deleted and uploaded, he was really completely paralyzed, feeling that his body was completely weakened, and his consciousness was very blurry, but his face was a smile of relief, he really accepted his fate, or died!

......

Suddenly, Gu Ming's whole body trembled.

"No, no, I can't die yet, I haven't paid my party dues this month。。。。。。 ”

Before he could finish speaking, there was a loud click, and a blue lightning bolt streaked across the dark night sky, passing through the balcony window from the clouds with lightning speed, slashing at Gu Ming, splitting him into a pile of coke.

"It's just you!" a majestic voice sounded again.

......

"God doesn't have a sense of humor at all!" This was Gu Ming's thought when he was dying.

However, he didn't find that due to his dizziness, the IP address of the remote server where the uploaded data was logged in was filled in incorrectly, and the uploaded data progress bar was stuck at 99% until the moment he was struck by lightning, the progress bar jumped a little, 100%, done!!
